How can i become biomedical engineer?
Hello Aspirant,
You’ll need to have a first degree in either physics, electrical engineering, biomedical engineering or mechanical engineering. The degree should be accredited by The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) or the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE).
Once you have your degree, you can:
- apply for jobs in the private sector and work your way towards becoming a chartered engineer
- work as a biomedical engineer in the NHS, by taking a specialist training course called the Scientist Training Programme (STP)
To do an engineering-related degree, you will usually need five GCSEs (A-C) including maths, English and science, plus three A levels. Maths and physics A level are preferred.
Alternatively, level 3 vocational courses in science or engineering may be acceptable for some degrees – check with universities.
This may help.
Happy learning!
